MISCONCEPT -1If FAR is low we cannot go for high-rise development
MISCONCEPT -2Land value is high and is Sky-rocketing Hence FARhas to be increased considerably
MISCONCEPT -3If FAR is increased prices of Flats will come down
MISCONCEPT -4Land is precious and scarce hence FAR has to be increased considerably to house the exploding population
MISCONCEPT - 5If FAR is not increased the common man cannot afford a decent shelter

MISCONCEPT - 6If FAR values are not increased considerably major projects like it Parks will not come in the city
MISCONCEPT - 7Housing industry in private sector is giving employment to many Very high FAR can improve the employment opportunities in this sector
